Thank you for the welcome...and clarification of time thing. Want to know how much a stranger I am? Here goes : what is "pre-web BBS? Or do I even need to know that? Have you guessed that my writer-life started with hot type and progressed from there to word processing stories. My most advanced computer experience was doing newspaper production on a Mac. When I see how-to once or twice I've got it but reading the manuals leaves me dizzy and disoriented and (as a writer/editor) frustrated. Thank you again - and yet again -for your time and courtesy. WOW
